Hi Guys,
 Heres one for you. When you create the root certificate 
with openssl it is given a serial number of 0. Every other 
root signed certificate (peer certs) is given a serial 
number of 0X where X is the next certificate number e.g. 
01. 
 The certificates signed by root can be revoked and I have 
sucessfully done this. 
 When I came to revoke the Root certificate Openssl ca says 
that teh serial number is invalid because it is one digit, 
that digit being 0, which is assigned to the root 
certificate by Openssl! 
 Therefore I cannot successfully revoke the root 
certificate! 
 Is there away to get Openssl to create the certificate 
with a 00 serial number or is there another way to revoke 
the root certificate. I am currently using:
 openssl ca -revoke cert.pem -config ca.cfg 
for revoking the cert.

please HELP!!!!!

cheers
Evan
